Congratulations to the entire study team and thank you to all the families and children who participated in the ODYSSEY trial.
Sponsored by Penta and funded by ViiV Healthcare, the ODYSSEY trial’s main objective was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a once daily dose of dolutegravir-based antiretroviral therapy compared with the current standard HIV treatment in children and adolescents with HIV.
